i recently got back into photography and found that i enjoy it more than i expected. i say 'back into' because when i was a kid, i was obsessed with taking pictures. i didn't go anywhere without a camera in my hand. and spent all my allowance on developing film. i've got more snapshots of family and pets than i know what to do with. i still have the old minolta film camera my grandparents gave me when i was about 13.
craig got interested in photography last fall and when i showed an interest, too, he gave me a canon xsi. he's awesome! now that i've got a decent DSLR, i'm trying to be more creative with my photography... and not just take snapshots. we've been to various cemeteries, visited downtown on multiple occasions, and i've even tried my hand at sports photography.
having a camera at my side has been good for me. it's gotten us both out of the house more. having a hobby to share with my husband (and best friend) is priceless. we now visit places around our city that in the past we tended to neglect. and when we go away on vacation, planning a photo shoot comes naturally.
i'm amazed at how liberating and empowering photography has been for me. and it's all thanks to craig!
